Channa And Vegetables Cutlet ( step wise pictures)

Channa And Vegetable Cutlets (step wise pictures)

Channa And Vegetables Cutlet ( step wise pictures)


Making kids eating vegetables is a very tough job for mothers in most of the houses. Kids will eat vegetables if you give them in the form of cutlet. I have added Channa for additional protein. 

If you are concerned more about health , you can shallow fry them on a dosai pan or you can even grill  it. We used to do shallow fry only ,at home.

  3. Take a ball out of the channa n vegetable mix and mould it into the desired shape.
  4. Dip that into maida batter and take out instantly. Place it in the bread crumbs plate. Roll the vegetable mix in the bread crumbs so that bread crumbs sticks to all parts of it. ( picture 4)
